Sorry, I don't understand Bud.* I just tried to make a few suggestions here with this thread. If it's a bother- just delete the whole thing. No big deal. Should you find that not sufficient, feel free to ban me then. Although, need I remind you: • YOU were the one who invited me...

sorry, i missed your post earlier. they were just ideas. no big bother. glad you had the chance to contribute your "opinion" though. i don't have a sig line. if you mean the 'moron' thing- that's something our RATnet moderator put on there. no big deal. just consider the source. RPMs :)

yeah, i've heard that. oh, i dunno about the sig line. i think it's cute. of course, you did express YOUR opinion, dint you? :) I guess the best thing is to leave off. if you know that term. might as well. I'd just hoped for much more is all. shouldn't be anything wrong with that...

Numbers speak loudly. This forum is all about looking at ugly naked skanks on bikes and bullshitting one another. There's thousands of other sites like it, and this one is just another 'also ran'. There is neither redeeming value or benefit- unless those two objectives are important to the...

One group I am a member of has a robust Assistance Network. Granted, the cars we have are somewhat cantankerous - so you need one! There are four major events in the US every year, so members crisscross the country in hopes of attending them (in 50 year old cars mind you). Every once in a...

Nah, I rode 180+ miles today. NC & TN again. I've clocked about 550+ miles this week so far. Fun! Great weather too. (wee bit of rain the other day, but within tolerance!) Was just thinking about the potential this forum has when out today, and jotted down the ideas when I returned. (I...

Yeah. That's an option. Also, the one Jenks is having made (CNC'd nicely). But it's probably big $$$. I guess same goes for the Triumph hubs! p.

Disallowed.

Thanks Bill. That's my Saturday job then!!

On aircraft wheel bearings (usually tapered) the suspension of the 'race' is critical to optimum performance. Wherein the mounting of the cradle within which the actual bearings reside is 'set' to tight tolerances on shoulders of the axel and wheel hub. The bearings in our wheels (as I've seen)...

There is some back story to clarify. It's really too long to share. Suffice to say, my OEM rear hub has never been 'right'. Straight from the factory- just slightly oblong. Making matters worse- apprentice lot boy at my dealership hammered the first replacement set in. [for the...

yep, while my ass may be a little fat- you're just an ASS. big diff. as well, i can always lose weight- you'll ALWAYS be UGLY, and deformed.

Oh, this is DEFINITELY the rear bearings! It's a repetitive squeak when moving slowly (like in a parking lot, or rolling out of the garage). At slow speed I can feel it in the rear when I turn to the right - so it's the right side going. It's a shudder or vibration (depending upon how hard...

I'll keep an eye out for you next time- same goes for mrt202, whom I kind of 'snubbed' (inadvertently) in a Toccoa gas station. I do ride a bit. I guess a couple three hundred miles this week. Same for last week. Weather has been good for it, not too hot. Somewhere today I walked by a guy that...

Yep, that was me. I go there a few times a week for lunch. Good eats. I live here. No work. Next time ask any waitress/waiter in there if they know Paul (the younger). They'll point me out. (there's 2 Paul's that go there- one has a great sandwich in the menu named after him, that's...
